EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative painting by George Raper, entitled 'A Native Boy of Port Jackson,' depicts Nanberry, a native boy from the Port Jackson area of New South Wales, Australia. The portrait was created in 1792 and is part of the extensive George Raper drawing collection held within the Natural History Museum in London, United Kingdom. Nanberry was born around 1768 on Norfolk Island, a small island in the Pacific Ocean that was then part of the British colony of New South Wales. At the time, Europeans were first beginning to explore and settle the lands of Australia, and Nanberry's encounter with the British occurred during the period of 1787 to 1797. The painting captures the essence of Nanberry's youth and vitality, with his curious expression and the intricate details of his traditional clothing and body adornments. The background shows the Sirius, a British naval vessel that was anchored in Port Jackson during this time. Nanberry's story is significant in the history of Indigenous Australians and their interactions with European settlers. He became a servant to the British naval officer, John Hunter, and was taken to England with him in 1792. Nanberry's experiences in England provided him with a unique perspective on both Indigenous and European cultures, and he became an important intermediary between the two groups upon his return to New South Wales. This painting offers a glimpse into the complex history of Indigenous Australians during the 18th century, a time of cultural exchange, exploration, and colonization. It serves as a reminder of the rich and diverse history shared between Indigenous peoples and Europeans in the lands that would come to be known as Australia.
